Windows 10 Team Profile - Matthew van Eerde

Windows 10 Team Profile

To give you even more insight into Windows 10, we’d like to introduce you to some of the people on our team and how they support the platform – and Windows Insiders like you. We’ll feature team profiles on an ongoing basis here in the Hub.

Describe your role with Microsoft and the Windows Insider Program

I work on the Windows audio quality team. My blog is at http://blogs.msdn.com/b/matthew_van_eerde/. Back in the day, I wrote code that tried to break things, and when I couldn’t break things anymore, we shipped. Nowadays, I write code and reports that says how well things are working, which is infinitely cooler, because I can triangulate and discover the existence of all sorts of interesting bugs.

Sometimes our reports miss things – everything’s green, but stuff is actually broken. That’s where the Windows Insiders are a tremendous help! I judge our reports by their ability to predict the feedback of the Insiders.
